Trolls, Bears, & Ghosts

We took a quick camping trip to Adventures Unlimited this weekend due to the beautiful weather we'd been having. I've been promising to let Ava join us on a trip and this seemed like a good weekend to try it out. She's a good bit younger than the girls and often gets home sick when she's away. Needless to say I was a little nervous as to how she would react in the woods at night...especially since John mentioned all her most feared creatures within 2 hrs of being their...Trolls, Bears & Ghosts. All things that probably have never come up in a conversation between them ever...

We finished the weekend up with a quick dip at Nana & Papa's.

Friday night he had 4 friends spend the night & though I had a mini stroke over a legitimate offer to spray paint part of our outside storage area, the boys had a blast. Gavin is really hung up on  Guthrie's  right now so we started the evening out with Guthrie's for dinner & then John, begin the brave (insane) loaded all the boys up and took them to see Ice Age.  They returned home with plenty of energy to burn & spent the rest of the evening playing outside and having video game battles. Thanks to my saint of sister who kept the girls, it was a boys only zone, and was undoubtably outnumbered.  The next morning, though they were up VERY late,...

 The girls had their church Christmas Program this weekend. They performed at both morning services and were equally amazing each time around! They've been practicing for the mast few months, and all their hard work most definitely paid off.
